64th E3 Saxo Bank Classic: 25 March, 2022

[Velolover2]

Wth is LTS doing there. Campenaerts race is over.

Yeah. Some of the worst mechanic work I've seen.

 

[Netserk]

Countdown to the sprint to the entry of Boonenberg.

 

[Velolover2]

Eurosport commercial on my local ES channel when Wout accelerates on Taaienberg. Great...

 

[Netserk]

Well ridden, good group now.

 

[KZD]

What an attack from van Aert and with Laporte and Bennot following him, Jumbo can play the numbers game.

 

[Sciatic]

Looks like a lot of of Belgians called in “sick” today

 

[Netserk]

Van Aert, Benoot, Laporte, Asgreen, Küng, Mohoric, Stuyven.

 

[SafeBet]

Jumbo has become THE team for the cobble classics. Brutal attack on Taaienberg.

 

[Netserk]

Full gas without hesitation until Eikenberg at least.

 

[Netserk]

Pedersen.

Stuyven.

 

[Netserk]

Ag2r leads the chase.

 

[Velolover2]

Ok, Mohoric is there as well. Mega favorite group.

 

[SafeBet]

Ag2r leads the chase.

Now Ineos pulling too.
Gap already at 30+ seconds I'd say.

 

[Sciatic]

Love seeing the guys in the break all looking back to see the locomotive barreling towards them!

Gap will go out for a while now.

the amount of times an initial breakaway ruins the cohesion for the attacking favourites group makes me wonder why they don't bring it back before there is a big attack.

Then you need to take resources away that you would otherwise use to position your team before the bottleneck.

 

[Velolover2]

Ineos looking good tbh.

 

[Salvarani]

The others chance is not to help Jumbo, but that will bring others back.

But judging by how strong the Jumbo riders looked on the last climb, it might over sooner rather than later anyway.

 

[Netserk]

Good to see Benoot swinging.

 

[SafeBet]

Jumbo on a mission.

 

[Velolover2]

Wout, Benoot, Laporte. The dream podium.

 

[Netserk]

Oss is the only survivor from the break.

 

[sir fly]

JV riding really well.
No free ride.

 

[Velolover2]

Jumbo forcing the others to work. Amazing.
